theft prevention lug nuts- may not have the socket

Had my new to me 02 S on the lift yesterday doing my first oil change. As the oil was draining I did a cursory inspection of the underside then moved to suspension/wheels. I noticed each wheel has one " security " lug nut.........hmmm I don't remember a socket in the tool kit. Today I'll take a better look through the tool kit/car to see if the correct socket is somewhere. But if I don't find the correct socket how do I remove those lug bolts ? I plan to replace with a conventional lug bolt. Do independant shops have a universal socket or is there a trick or take to a dealer ? I'm hoping I find the socket. And where to purchase lug bolts ? Dealer or ?
